RoadRelay 4 is a compact in- or on-dash unit and has a bright four-line display. While it is designed for Cummins electronic engines, RoadRelay 4 is also compatible with other manufacturers’ diesel engines. The RoadRelay 4 with GPS and ProMiles Fuel Tax system must be integrated with Cummins INFORMT or INSPECT vehicle and fleet management software. It automatically provides state-by-state and vehicle-by-vehicle fuel tax information, as well as trip sheets.

Enabling the “Route” feature in a RoadRelay 4 with GPS allows the unit to record GPS coordinates every time specific events occur (such as key on/off, fault or extended idle). It also eliminates the need to laboriously compile fuel-tax report data including the tracking of on- and off-highway use and time spent at idle. Drivers can also enter fuel purchases at the point of purchase.

Once RoadRelay 4 data is downloaded into INFORM or INSPEC, it is then exported to Cummins PowerTrip and ProMiles Fuel Tax software. Fuel Tax then automatically populates data fields with the information from RoadRelay 4, saving fleet managers time and eliminating common mistakes. And since Fuel Tax is used by IFTA auditors in all Canadian provinces and most U.S. states, a business can be sure that its trucks’ mileage reports will match those generated by the IFTA auditors.

Available through Cummins distributors, Cummins PowerTrip by ProMiles is an innovative software package that allows users to import trip data directly from a RoadRelay 4 with GPS and INFORM or INSPEC into the Fuel Tax software. It also produces and prints trip sheets for use as backup in the case of an IFTA audit.
